Chapter 44 First Romance ?
I blinked at the generous mission rewards popping up on my screen, but the shock of the penalty had me collapsing into my aunt\'s lap. Negative -10 Charisma ?
"What will happen if I fail?" I muttered to myself. A -10 Charisma would put me in the negative, but I wondered, was there even such a thing as negative Charisma? How ugly could a person be to reach that level of stats? These were the types of questions that can kept me up at night . Really scary thoughts .
Would I devolve into an intellectual ape, incapable of even the most basic social interactions? Or would I end up looking like a person with special needs ?
I thought about chasing immediately after her after seeing the penalty, like one of those dramatic K-Drama scenes, but then remembered - I didn\'t want to look like that clingy guy from episode 7. Plus, my system skills is basically useless against her. Great, just my luck!
As I lay there, pondering my misfortune and the mission at hand, Aunt Alyssa patted my head with her soft and fragrant hands . It\'s difficult to imagine that these same hands had stabbed someone multiple times just a few days ago.
"Don\'t worry, I\'m still here. I\'ll never abandon you," she reassured me with a warm smile.
Oh, I forgot to turn on her Domination. Well, I\'ll give her some time to enjoy her temporary freedom.
Besides, I was heartbroken, so snuggling up in her soft legs felt like the only way to mend my wounded and broken soul. These legs had magical stress-reducing powers; I swear, they could rival a dozen therapy sessions and a new gaming console!
After a few minutes of satisfying myself with her legs, I decided it was time to address the situation with Alice.
"Hey, where is she living right now?" I asked curiously.
"She\'s staying in a dorm in Goyang-Si," she replied.
"Goyang-Si?" I don\'t really know much about the outside world, so I check my phone and search the location in G-MAP.
"An hour away?" I muttered in surprise. Goyang-Si was at least an hour away by train. Well, it might not be far for most people, but for a NEET like me, that felt like borderline work.
"But for my first love," I exaggerated dramatically, pretending to puff up like a mighty hero, "I\'d cross mountains, swim across oceans, and scale the tallest buildings! Who needs a comfy NEET life when love is at stake, right?" I chuckled at the absurdity of my own statement, fully aware of the sarcasm dripping from every word.
"This battle is for all the cultured men out there! I will carry our flag to greatness!" I declared as I stood up, ready to embark on my mission to win Alice\'s heart without relying on my cheat-like abilities.
"Alyssa, let\'s chat about your sister," I announced, adjusting my imaginary glasses and striking a scholarly pose. That\'s right! Before venturing into the dangerous battlefield called "Love" this dashing general must gather intel.
"So, tell me about her likes and dislikes," I asked, taking out a notebook and pen as if I were a detective on a crucial case. I know it might seem a bit old-fashioned, but my usual skills won\'t work on Alice at all. Sometimes, you\'ve got to go back to basics to succeed .
With a bit of prodding, Alyssa started revealing her adorable little sister\'s secrets .
One intriguing tidbit was that despite a legion of admirers, Alice had managed to keep her romantic experience at zero. Boys seemed to orbit around her like satellites, but none had ever landed. It was an info that made me like her more and more.
As the conversation flowed, I couldn\'t help but feel that Alice was the embodiment of perfection. According to Alyssa, she was a shining star in their school—a top student who held the prestigious position of Student Council Vice-President.
And if that wasn\'t impressive enough, she was also a volleyball prodigy, effortlessly spiking her way to glory on the varsity team. It was clear that she excelled in every aspect of life, and I couldn\'t help but wonder how I could ever measure up to someone like her.
Then an idea came up.
This idea hit me like a bolt of lightning. Why not just enroll in her school? Sure, the entrance exams were long gone, but with my system skills, I could just hypnotize the administration into making a spot for me.
I\'d never truly experienced a classic high school life. I\'d missed out on those small yet significant moments: sneaking out of class, giggling over a silly joke, lunch breaks filled with drama, and the exciting buzz of school festivals. Maybe this was my chance to reclaim that lost youth.
And let\'s be honest, if we were talking about prime locations to farm experience and skills, what better place than a school? It\'s a melting pot of emotions, experiences, and daily drama.
"Who am I kidding ?" After a brief moment of enthusiasm, I quickly I had powers, and I was going to use them to their full potential, without compromising my status or pretending to be anything less dismissed the idea.
Going to school seemed like a lot of effort, and let\'s be real, it would be a downgrade for someone of my status. Who needs high school experience when I already have a system at my fingertips?
My thoughts drifted back to all those novels and stories where the underdog main character suddenly gained incredible powers and then chose to attend school like a regular human being.
They\'d act like peasants, pretending to be normal, and I couldn\'t help but roll my eyes at those ridiculous protagonists. I had no intention of following in their footsteps.
I had powers, and I was going to use them to their full potential, without compromising my status or pretending to be anything less than I was. High school drama? Not for me.
